At 68, former Pink Floyd frontman Roger Waters continues to make news headlines whether winning a prestigious award or throwing his support behind the Occupy Wall Street movement.

But mostly, fans are still buzzing about his recent announcement that he'll bring “The Wall” back to the United States next year.

So here's a reminder: Tickets go on sale to the public at 10 a.m. Monday for the prog-rocker's elaborate production of Pink Floyd's “The Wall” at Grand Rapids' Van Andel Arena on June 6, 2012, part of a much-ballyhooed U.S. tour.

A special "Live Nation Mobil App" presale is under way now through 10 p.m. Sunday. Get details about that here and then click on "Onsale Dates." A presale for American Express cardholders also is under way through 10 p.m. Sunday.

Tickets for the Grand Rapids show -- $57.50-$201.50 -- go on sale Monday at the arena box office, Ticketmaster outlets, by calling 800-745-3000, or online at ticketmaster.com or livenation.com. Tickets for the June 5 Detroit show go on sale at the same time at the venue and through Ticketmaster.

The on-sale for most shows on the U.S. tour comes after Waters' “The Wall” won “event of the year” honors on Thursday night at London, England's Classic Rock Roll of Honour awards show (which also presented guitarist Jeff Beck its Living Legend award and made the Foo Fighters the band of the year).

The successful rocker who's charging as much as $200 or so for tickets to “The Wall” also recently threw his support behind Occupy protesters in a video on his Facebook page, saying it's “wrong” what's happened to the hard-working middle class in the United States and arguing the country “is being run absolutely for the benefit of the richest 1 percent” of citizens.
